Objective: To investigate the phenotypes and predominant skeletodental pattern in pre-adolescent patients with Pierre-Robin sequence (PRS).
Materials and Methods: The samples consisted of 26 Korean pre-adolescent PRS patients (11 boys and 15 girls; mean age at cephalometric analysis and phenotype investigation, 9.20 years), who were treated at Department of Orthodontics, XXXXX National University Dental Hospital during 1998-2019. After dental phenotypes, oral manifestation, cephalometric variables, and associated anomalies were investigated, statistical analysis was performed.
Results: Congenitally missing teeth (CMT) were found at 34.6% of patients (n=9/26, 20 teeth, 2.22 teeth per patient). In CMT, 55.5% of patients (n=5/9) showed bilateral and symmetric missing pattern. The most prevalent CMT was the mandibular incisors (n=11/20). The predominant skeletodental patterns were the Class II relationship (57.7%), posteriorly positioned maxilla (76.9%), posteriorly positioned mandible (92.3%), hyper-divergent pattern (92.3%), high gonial angle (65.4%), small mandibular body length to anterior cranial base ratio (65.4%), linguoversion of the maxillary incisors (76.9%), and linguoversion of the mandibular incisors (80.8%). Incomplete cleft palate (CP) of hard palate with complete soft palate CP (61.5%) was the most frequent one than other types (complete CP of hard and soft palate, 19.2%; soft palate CP, 19.2%; P<0.05). However, CP severity did not show significant correlation with cephalometric variables except IMPA (P<0.05). 53.8% of PRS patients had 5 craniofacial and 15 extra-craniofacial anomalies, which implicated a need of routine screening.
Conclusion: These results might provide a primary data for individualized diagnosis and treatment planning for pre-adolescent PRS patients despite a single university hospital-based data.
